We should probably set the WPM limit to the world record, which I believe I saw was 216 WPM. Also, we need something better than just "0." Maybe we could add a message asking them to type manually?
But good idea !

I created a simple python script to type out a challenge for me and realized that I was able to type over 1000 words per minute with, I add a quick "half assed" fix for it. In the getCPM method in ResultCalulationService I made it so it just returns 0 if the words per minute is greater than 300, there may be a better implementation for this due to the fact I am still learning the codebase.
